LayerTake

Leave pins on any webpage. Private notes by default, public when you choose.

If you've ever wanted to leave your take, an opinion, a comment or a note directly on a webpage or even a specific part of a page, then this is for you. LayerTake is a Chrome overlay that only LayerTake users can see. It lets you drop a pin anywhere on the internet on any page—for yourself, for your friends, for your groups, or for everyone in the world who uses LayerTake to see. So... what's your take? ------------------------------------------ LayerTake is a Nostr plugin / Chrome addon / decentralized social network that adds a layer of pins to any webpage. Select a sentence or click an image, write a note, and it stays attached to that spot. Come back later and your pins are where you left them, even if the page has shifted a little. Choose who sees each pin: • Only me: private notes that never leave your browser. • Friends: people you follow who follow you back. Encrypted separately for each of them. • A group: a book club, a design team, a supper club. Encrypted for the group's members. • Public: anyone using LayerTake or another Nostr app. What you get • A purple tab on the edge of every page shows how many pins are there. Click it to slide the panel in, click again to tuck it away. • Pin mode: switch it on, then select text or click a paragraph or image to pin it. • Highlights and margin markers show exactly what each pin is about. • Layers you can turn on and off: Mine, Friends, Groups and Public. • Threads: reply to any pin. Vote and report on public pins. • Saved: bookmark pins you want to find again. • Popular: the sites with the most public pins this month. • Fade: the panel turns see-through as your pointer moves away, so you can read the page behind it. • Your profile: a name and picture shown on pins you share. Private by default LayerTake has no accounts and no servers of its own, and its developer never receives your data. Private pins are stored only in your browser. Friends, Groups and Public are each off until you turn them on, and each asks for your OK first. Shared pins travel through Nostr relays, which you can choose in Settings. There are no ads, no analytics and no tracking. You decide what you see Hide low-rated public pins, hide pins reported by several people, and block anyone. Group owners can take down pins in their group. Keyboard shortcut: Alt+Shift+L opens and closes LayerTake.
